The fungus link. [sound recording] : audio book / by Kaufmann, Doug A.,1949-author.(CARDINAL)733436; Holland, David,author.(CARDINAL)728988;
Narrated by Adrian Disch."Kaufmann and Davis Holland, M.D., team up once again to explain how microbes and toxins in the food we eat can cause a wide variety of diseases, from depression to hair loss to cancer. The Fungus Link, volume 2 features the Initial Phase and InterPhase diets. In the context of Kaufmann's Antifungal Program, the two staged diets are designed to help us limit our exposure to fungi and their toxins, while maximizing our bodies' defenses against them"--Container.

Blight : fungi and the coming pandemic / by Monosson, Emily,author.(CARDINAL)530611;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 205-238) and index."A prescient warning about the mysterious and deadly world of fungi-and how to avert further loss across species, including our own. Fungi are everywhere. Most are harmless; some are helpful. A few are killers. Collectively, infectious fungi are the most devastating agents of disease on earth, and a fungus that can persist in the environment without its host is here to stay. In Blight, Emily Monosson documents how trade, travel, and a changing climate are making us all more vulnerable to invasion. Populations of bats, frogs, and salamanders face extinction. In the Northwest, America's beloved national parks are covered with the spindly corpses of whitebark pines. Food crops are under siege, threatening our coffee, bananas, and wheat-and, more broadly, our global food security. Candida auris, drug-resistant and resilient, infects hospital patients and those with weakened immune systems. Coccidioides, which lives in drier dusty regions, may cause infection in apparently healthy people. The horrors go on. Yet prevention is not impossible. Tracing the history of fungal spread and the most recent discoveries in the field, Monosson meets scientists who are working tirelessly to protect species under threat, and whose innovative approaches to fungal invasion have the potential to save human lives. Delving into case studies at once fascinating, sobering, and hopeful, Blight serves as a wake-up call, a reminder of the delicate interconnectedness of the natural world, and a lesson in seeing life on our planet with renewed humility and awe"--

Magical mushrooms, mischievous molds / by Hudler, George W.(CARDINAL)333675;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 235-243) and index.Classification and naming -- What fungi do and how they do it -- Fungi as pathogens of food crops -- Fungi as agents of catastrophic tree diseases -- Ergot of grain crops -- Mycotoxins: toxic by-products of fungal growth -- Mycoses: fungus diseases of humans -- Medicinal molds -- Yeasts for baking and brewing -- Edible and poisonous mushrooms -- Hallucinogenic mushrooms -- Wood decay -- Interactions of fungi and insects -- Symbiotic relationships of fungi with plants.In this book, George Hudler leads us on a tour of an often-overlooked group of organisms, which differ radically from both animals and plants. Along the way the author stops to ponder the marvels of nature and the impact of mere microbes on the evolution of civilization. Nature's ultimate recyclers not only save us from drowning in a sea of organic waste, but also provide us with food, drink, and a wide array of valuable medicines and industrial chemicals.
